Quick Transmigration: The Mad Beauty Refuses to Be the Scapegoat! Chapter 288 - 26: The Disabled Tycoon’s Ex-Wife Refuses to B

Just like that, Tao Xinzhu held twenty-five percent of the company’s shares. Apart from the shares mortgaged to Jiang Lai, he was still the largest shareholder in the company besides Mr. Tao.

Soon it was the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion night, Tao Xinzhu took the initiative to find Jiang Lai and invite her to dinner.

At the outdoor bar, Tao Xinzhu drank quite a bit. Jiang Lai could tell he was genuinely happy, after all, as a university student who hadn’t graduated yet, getting hold of such a cash flow and about to achieve sothing was naturally exciting for him.

As he drank, Tao Xinzhu silently stared at Jiang Lai. Suddenly, he reached out and directly held Jiang Lai’s hand, speaking unclearly under the influence of alcohol.

"Jiang Lai, did you know I’ve always had you in my heart?"

"No, I didn’t."

"Heh... That’s because I hid my feelings, not daring to let you know. The old simply didn’t dare to express my emotions to you."

Jiang Lai slowly pulled back her hand, propped her chin with a feigned smile, gazing at him.

"How co you have the courage now?"

"Because I feel like I’m qualified now. I’m no longer the person I used to be. Soon, I’ll let you see that I, Tao Xinzhu, can achieve a business of my own without relying on my family."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Lai laughed. Her eyes were filled with dazzling starlight, captivating and impossible to look away from, backed by the colorful neon lights behind her. Tao Xinzhu stared at her dumbfounded, feeling the beauty of Jiang Lai for the first ti.

"n indeed should have their own career, but do you think with the bit of success you’ve achieved now, you’re worthy of ?"

A cold bucket of water was poured, bringing Tao Xinzhu back to reality. His emotions stifled by Jiang Lai’s cold gaze right at the brink of expressing them.

He took a sip of his drink and laughed self-deprecatingly.

"You’ve always looked down on since we were young."

"Yeah, that’s just who I am, as you know, I despise the poor and love the rich, flatter the high and trample the low. Anyone worse off than , I look down on them. Is it your first day knowing ?"

Tao Xinzhu looked at Jiang Lai, a bit surprised.

It was the first ti he had seen soone who could speak of their flaws so openly and rightly.

"Are there any n in the world whom you can admire? Are you certain you can find soone who truly cares for you?"

"True feelings? If there’s no money, why talk about true feelings? Spare . Keep your true feelings for those inexperienced girls who can be easily tricked ho for a hundred or two thousand. We drank well today, next ti before you confess, take a good look in the mirror and see what kind of person you are."

After speaking, Jiang Lai picked up her millionaire bag, tossed her car keys defiantly, and turned to leave.

"You’re about to drive Tao Xinzhu to madness."

Little Buding watched the man behind Jiang Lai, smacking her lips.

Jiang Lai was truly impressive, able to infuriate soone like Tao Xinzhu who usually hides his emotions, almost crushing the glass in his hand.

"No man will ever like you this way."

"That’s better than letting just any type of man dare to stick onto ."

"You have high standards now, even Mo Zhoujing you don’t like. Who do you think you’ll ever like?"

"I don’t like anyone beneath . Unfortunately, all these n are not as good as I am. Just a taste of success in the business field, they think they’re the next world tycoon. These n I despise more; they better stay far away from ."

Having no self-awareness, being both insecure and arrogant, they want their dignity all supported by others. Once no one praises them, they can do all sorts of ssy things.

That’s the reason why Jiang Lai felt no guilt or regret when she tricked him.

Sure enough, after drinking tonight, Tao Xinzhu seed stimulated and once again sought Mike, wanting him to invest more and spouting a bunch of empty words to guarantee the high returns from investing in him.

Mike wasn’t the type to work attracted simply by the sll of at; he had to have the at in hand first.

Upon hearing that Tao Xinzhu wanted more money, this ti Mike was not as agreeable as before, taking out a contract directly.

"If you want money, sure. But my money isn’t blown by the wind; bring sothing to trade."

Tao Xinzhu didn’t expect that soone who casually invested in him before would now request a mortgage.

But he was no longer overwheld by temporary success; he believed as long as the capital chain was sufficient, he would definitely make more money. So, after hesitating, he pledged his shares to Mike.

"I’m just keeping these shares for you temporarily; fulfill your promise within two months, and you can take them back unchanged. We’ve written everything clearly on paper; go ahead boldly, you can always co to for money by exchanging shares."

With the money in hand, Tao Xinzhu didn’t hesitate to invest fully in new product developnt. What he needed to do now was to monopolize the market before the new overseas technology officially entered the dostic field and then make a huge profit.

Everything was progressing very smoothly, and the new technology developnt was also very successful. Soon, within two months, Tao Xin dical had solved the technical problems and launched the latest generation of dical equipnt.

As long as it’s put into use, within the two-month period, he’ll undoubtedly be capable of retrieving the money plus profits.

At this point, he returned to prepare for graduation defense, Jiang Lai was also graduating soon. They encountered each other again on campus, and this ti Tao Xinzhu had completely transford, evolving from a naïve university student to a confident, composed successful individual within a few months.

Jiang Lai hadn’t changed; she still carried expensive bags, wore expensive clothes, and stuck to herself.

"Shall we have a drink together?"

Tao Xinzhu initiated the invitation, believing Jiang Lai wouldn’t refuse him this ti.

But he didn’t expect Jiang Lai to look at him and directly smile and shake her head.

"I’m very busy."

"Don’t you want to know how much the money you invested is going to earn soon?"

Jiang Lai hesitated for a mont, then continued shaking her head.

"Of course, I know."

"You..."

"I’m soone who never makes losing deals; keep up the good work."

Having said that, Jiang Lai was about to leave when she was grabbed by the arm by Tao Xinzhu.

"Jiang Lai, I’m going to succeed very soon. The money you contributed sure helped, but unfortunately, not much help. I can repay you everything now, principals, interests, and all. Just return the shares to now."

Upon hearing about the principal and interest, Jiang Lai finally stopped and looked at him directly.

"Tao Xinzhu, need to calculate for you? One hundred and fifty million with principal and interest amounts to more than three hundred million. Are you sure you want to repay now?"

"Of course, but if you’d like to return the shares to in advance, I wouldn’t mind the money continuing to stay in our company, giving you the chance to earn more."
